Stats and Operations Research: Sample Survey Desig
The SURVEYFREQ procedure produces one-way to n-way frequency and crosstabulation tables from sample survey data. These tables include estimates of population totals, population proportions (overall proportions, and also row and column proportions), and corresponding standard errors. Confidence limits, coefficients of variation, and design effects are also available. The procedure provides a variety of options to customize your table display...

NCSALL Reports #14 January 2000 22 However, when asked to estimate their own reading ability, 76% of the sample reported reading “very well” or “well.” Because the REALM tests only word recognition skills, it is suggested that actual reading comprehension skills are likely to be even lower than shown by the data. Recommends that clinicians practicing in settings with high rates of low literacy be aware of the incongruities...

Greenhouse Gases & Surface Temperature Change
began in January 1994 with the long-term goal of building, maintaining, and continually improving a comprehensive model of the climate system. The CSM is composed of 4 independent models (ocean, atmosphere, sea ice, and land surface) that communicate using the "Flux Coupler". The following images and animations are visualizations from the CSM project and represent data from the different model components as noted. Red depicts warming...

workshops, provide and model lessons that incorporate technology, and consult with teachers and students on how to best use the tools in their classroom. To manage all PD activity, the district uses My Learning Plan, a web-based database, to keep track of registration and other records. Staff can preview and enroll in development opportunities and review their training history from home or school. Kyrene School District, Arizona: Three Steps to Using Data To maximize decis...

It predicts presence or absence of pecans based on the simplest rule: since most places don't have pecans, assume all places don't have pecans. It provides a baseline for comparing the other models.-ND--ND-84.980.000 OneR: This is the simplest real model. It predicts presence or absence of pecans based one climatic factor (aka an...
Introduction to Climate Modeling
model can make predictions about soil carbon and other properties for areas where there are little or no data (Levine and Kimes 1997). When the model predicts something interesting or unexpected, Levine says, then it is time to go make more measurements. Why Build Computer Models? The data used in this study are available in one or more of NASA's Earth Science Data Centers. Data-driven models combine many types of observations to derive informat...
